Compilation fails: relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32S against symbol...

I am having problems trying to build the SHMEM port of the ISx benchmark on our Cray XC40 using PrgEnv-gnu (GCC 6.3.0). The error I get is:

I assume this is due to the large static array my_bucket_keys defined in isx.c so I tried to compile with -mcmodel=large, which only shifts the problem to some PMI function, so compilation still fails.

The MPI version of ISx builds just fine. Is this a known problem? Could it be a system configuration issue? Any help is much appreciated.

Known issue.
I have seen this once upon a time when i was experimenting with using static vs dynamic arrays. It happened when i tried to run isx with a very large number of keys, and is the reason for my latest pull request (which im assuming you are not using).

Until my pull request is approved, i have the unofficial fix in a branch of my fork: https://github.com/ireed/ISx/branches ('pull-request' branch).

Let me know if that helps.

Who are you waiting on to approve the pull request? I'm not sure who is responsible for ISx curation. -- Jeff Hammond [email protected] http://jeffhammond.github.io/

Fix should be merged. Let me know if it works.
